This work reports a flexible sweat-activated battery integrated with efficient bio-inspired microfluidics that can power biosensors for real-time health monitoring.

the aim of the present study was to assess the bio-trickling filter startup for the treatment ofwastewater produced by pegah dairy company at psychrophilic condition. the startup time of a bio-tricklingfilter is directly proportional to the concentration of microbial population. abio-trickling column with a height of150 cm was packed with lava rocks with the liquid recirculated through the pack...

Microneedle (MN) based electrochemical (bio)sensing has become a growing field within the discipline of analytical chemistry as result its unique capacity for continuous, decentralized health status monitoring. There are two significant advantages to this exclusive feature: i) ability directly analyze interstitial fluid (ISF), body with similar enough composition plasma (and blood) be considere...

BACKGROUND On-line monitoring of chemical/physical signals during haemodialysis (HD) and bio-feedback represents the first step towards a 'physiological' HD system incorporating adaptive and logic controls in order to achieve pre-set treatment targets. METHODS Discussions took place to achieve a consensus on key points relating to on-line monitoring and bio-feedback, focusing on the clinical ...

background: mercury (hg) is a hazardous metal responsible for environmental contamination and human intoxication. methyl mercury bio-accumulation through food chain can be responsible for chronic mercury exposure of south caspian sea communities with a diet rich in fish. uncertainties about exposure levels that could have damaging consequences for nervous system development of infants makes bio...

the present study aims to have a comparative study of the results, from biological monitoring as well as conventional method, based on physico-chemical variables. water quality index (wqi) and planktonic diatom metrics have been used to determine water quality and ecological conditions of the dong nai river (dnr) and canonical correspondence analysis (cca) to find out the main environmental var...

A hybrid bio-organic electrochemical transistor was developed by interfacing an organic semiconductor, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) doped with poly(styrene sulfonate), with the Physarum polycephalum cell. The system shows unprecedented performances since it could be operated both as a transistor, in a three-terminal configuration, and as a memristive device in a two terminal configuration m...
